That's interesting to hear. Since we're forced to diverge from Debian GNU/Linux
on this, it'd certainly be helpful if we could synergize with FreeBSD.
I was silently hoping that FreeBSD might eventually adopt OpenRC if it gains
more traction. What do you know of FreeBSD project position regarding launchd?
You mentioned some pointers to the wiki which can be used as speculation, but
has this matter actually been proposed/discussed?
